FIRST INTUITION · CAREERSan Francisco · Remote

Build the next
world model.

We're a small team building a foundational, physics-based world model — and the surfaces that ride on it: robots, worlds, drama, agents. If any of that resonates, send us a note.

Open roles · 3

01

Research Scientist

Set the technical direction for the world model. Mix of ML research, engineering taste, and the courage to commit to a long-horizon bet. Experience with 3D Gaussian Splatting or large-scale generative models expected.

02

Research Engineer

Build the substrate. Train and ship the core models. Own training infra, evaluation, and the loop from a paper to a shipped model. Strong background in 3D GS or generative models (diffusion, video, world models).

03

Research Engineer · Embodied

Bring the world model inside robotics platforms. Perception, prediction, policy — one model, all three. Background in 3D GS, generative world models, or robotics learning.

CAREER · WHAT WE LOOK FOR

Technical depth.
Strong character.

We hire for the rare overlap — people with initiative who want to build technology that matters.
